I bought this cap in preparation for private swim lessons. I'm not very happy with the purchase to be honest. My hair still gets very wet (a big deal considering my hair is naturally curly and I prefer to wear a straightened style because it's TONS easier to maintain, and this has been preventing me from doing so for a couple of weeks now). I feel like I spend a great deal of time during the lessons just repeatedly pulling it back down. One time it even came all the way off.

Stick with Speedo or Aqua Sphere. Like everthing else I've tried from this so-called swim expert company, I was once again shocked at the poor quality. Didn't think that could be possible with something as simple as a swim cap. It somehow even managed to dye my hair, so upset I shredded it.

This is mainly for exercise swimming. However, needed it to cover my ears and it did not ... have bought this model type before and did not have this problem. I am glad I also ordered one for long hair because it fit better and I could use it right away since it is winter now.
